I’m glad you agree Reluctant Unbeliever that you may be wrong.

People take to the bottle, some smoke, some want to say something and usually buy a card which comes close to what they are feeling. Imagine reading 20 cards from different people with the same wording. Kudos to those who choose to write, even a few words, however incoherent. I once thanked a wife for coming to her beloved husband’s funeral. Some times words just fail us even though our hearts are on our sleeves

 

You’re Wrong You admit you never knew her Only you chose not to defer Unsure why, would you at a wake Rant with such a preposterous mistake Engulfed by shock and overwhelmed in grief We mere mortals are uncomfortably brief Remorse comes hard and words are few Our emotions would be impossible to construe Now the commenters took a moment with heart on sleeve Go rethink it Reluctant Nonbeliever how our people should grieve
